News flash! Ubuntu does not use Anaconda. Ubuntu uses a modified version fo the TEXT installer that debian uses. It is a very good installer... And anaconda pales in comparison (from a technical point of view).
What a lot of people fail to realize is that the debian installer can very eaisly be made into a graphical installer. The debian project does not really see the benifits of such a move though, thus the reason they stick with text.
Also Debian, does autodetect hardware, unlike some have been saying...
Also this is much more than a security release. The old debian had X 4.2, gnome 2.2 (I think, or maybe 2.0, or maybe 1.4), and a bunch of other old things. This is a big accomplishment for the Debian project and it has plenty of new stuff...
